( ) as far as i can tell, and while the depths and degrees vary, everyone is broken in some way. sometimes in many ways. if we are lucky we have grit, a good sense of humour, and, maybe, support from others as we try and navigate our lives (while mitigating the damages as best we can). this all sounds very dark and heavy, i know... but: remember the humour! and if you are tuned into these facts about those around you, there is a sensitivity and kindness about you so very much needed in this world. so - that is what whispers through a megaphone is about. i found this to be a great read, and an impressive debut novel. the story is insightful, i enjoyed the quirk factor, and i think the character of miriam will stick with me for quite some time. there is a bit of a twist near the end, which was peculiar, this is another novel that landed on my reading radar thanks to the 2016 baileys women's prize for fiction, and i am so glad it did! interview with rachel elliott: http://bookanista.com/rachel-elliott/ aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Meanwhile, Ralph has made the mistake of opening a closet door, only to discover with a shock that his wife Sadie doesn't love him, and never has. And so he decides to run away.
